    A challenge: break these 3 aquascaping rules with a great tank

    I think your scape is truly inspirational mate, you push the boundaries to the extreme and its paid off ten fold. :) I agree that its interesting seeing different people analyzed the same scape. this shows different views and different focal points. Im going to disagree with tim and say that...

    A challenge: break these 3 aquascaping rules with a great tank

    I must admit I do agree with this. I felt that each scapes analytical diagrammatic changed every time to suit the scape. But I guess this is exactly the point were all agreeing on. That nothing is a certainty. I can see this becoming a little like the lighting thread where it becomes more of...

    A challenge: break these 3 aquascaping rules with a great tank

    I dont think anyone can claim that can they? I do however think that the term should be changed to 'the guide of two thirds' Im not talking about geomerty mumbo jumbo Im just simply saying, whether we like it or not, our vision immediately relates to imbalances and asymmetry. unless its a...

    A challenge: break these 3 aquascaping rules with a great tank

    I don't think there is a right and wrong focal point as long as you have it balanced with other factors, it's difficult to determine which is focal on different scapes, ie. Island scapes, corner scapes, iwagumi scapes, Dutch scapes, jungle scapes etc. All angles and direction will always differ...

    A challenge: break these 3 aquascaping rules with a great tank

    I think its just showing where the focal points are in relation to the 3 3rds rule and the gridded lines maybe? I think the focal points have a lot of give and room for manipulation as long as the other areas are balanced.

    I agree with Ian.. Love the thread but I can't help think that this is art, design and just naturally created imagery. I believe if you can't draw u can learn and be successful but u can never become as good as someone that has never had to learn, some one who has it in their blood. That make...

    Grey Tor Rock For Shrimps?

    I thing Garuf is generally right. Although its always best to be safe, there are some very reputable scapists on here that have used leaching stone like mini landscape rock and seriyu stone with sorts of shrimp and had a great outcome, I think CRS and others that are of the same temperament will...
